Letter: We ride our motorbikes on that road Diane Hammonds commented: We know this road in the picture because we ride our motorcycles that way often. We've lived in Adair County for ten years and know it well - located in the valley before you get to Burkesville on Hwy 61. - Diane 2020-04-11 14:00:47 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
Letter: Video from meetings Terry Davis writes: Can the video from the fiscal court meeting be shown on Columbia Magazines website please, there some in our community that are not Facebook fans and would like to see this video as well. Thanks --T DavisTerry, thanks for writing. We understand and sympathize. Unfortunately, when we tried embedding Facebook video feeds so that you could watch the video directly on Columbia Magazine, it worked on some browsers and not on others. We do prefer YouTube or Vimeo, which are much easier for our readers to view, easier to schedule, and tend to work across more devices and platforms. However, county officials have had to orchestrate several technologies in a hurry to make online meetings possible, and they've had to go with options that work with what they already have available and are comfortable operating. We're impressed that so many meetings have been live streamed already, with everyone able to virtually participate. We've checked to confirm that you can view the Fiscal Court proceedings on the Facebook site without needing to log in or create an account.

Letter: Farmer's Market Sheila Forsee writes: I'm curious as to why in times when churches are not even having in person services due to the high number of corona virus victims the farmer's market is still going on. --SheilaSheila, thanks for writing. We are finding lots of ways that worship can continue without face-to-face contact, including television, radio, and online. The Farmer's Market is deemed an essential business, like grocery stores are, because food is necessary for survival, and there's simply no way to distribute it without contact of some sort. In addition, the supply chain for the Farmer's Market is typically much, much shorter than for traditional grocery stores, thus reducing the overall amount of face-to-face contact that has to happen on the journey between the producer and the consumer. 2020-04-11 11:50:56 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Gov. Beshear asks for best efforts in COVID-19 fight Amid Passover and Easter celebrations, Governor urges compliance as cases continue to grow. By Crystal Staley/Sebastian Kitchen Frankfort, KY - Gov. Andy Beshear on Friday urged Kentuckians of all faiths to stay strong in the fight against the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) as cases continue to grow. "This is a time and weekend, a whole week for multiple faiths, that is about faith. It's about knowing we have faced as people - as Christians, as Jews, as members of many faiths - many difficult, dark times, and we have prevailed," the Governor said. "We know that the weeks or the months ahead will be difficult. We know that there are going to be tougher days before there are easier days. But we also know because we have faith that we are going to get through this and we are going to get through it together. We are going to pass this test of humanity." While getting compliance and support from a vast majority of leaders and Kentuckians in the faith community, Gov. Beshear is warning anyone planning to attend an in-person mass gathering this weekend that they will face quarantine orders. "This is the only way we can ensure that your decision doesn't kill someone else," the Governor said. Gov. Beshear has noted that an outbreak in Hopkins County that sickened dozens and led to multiple deaths was traced to a church revival there in mid-March. He said officials are aware of only about six churches in the commonwealth that are still planning to hold in-person services.
